Listen to the Forgotten Australians and Former Child Migrants oral history interviews

In the year since Prime Minister Kevin Rudd delivered the Apology, the National Library has begun recording interviews with people who were in institutional and out of home care as children. The interviews are being made available online in consultation with the people who have told their stories. Preserving the voices of Forgotten Australians and Former Child Migrants will ensure these experiences will be remembered.
